Chapter 12: Unyielding Soul, Purebred Evil Eye
Chapter 12: Unyielding Soul, Purebred Evil Eye
As the deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda, Leng Yaozhu naturally couldn't possibly know every detail of the tower's affairs.
But she was aware of the special significance of the Unyielding Soul.
A quick mental search revealed the relevant information.
She then slowly spoke: "The indomitable soul number 48 is a purebred spiritual evil eye that is three thousand years old."
"As Yuhao's first soul spirit, it is indeed the best choice."
The Evil Eye clan possesses multiple attributes, and the more singular an Evil Eye's attribute, the stronger it is.
Therefore, the purebred mental-type evil eye that Leng Yaozhu mentioned is undoubtedly an extremely rare and powerful existence.
However, a hint of worry quickly flashed across Leng Yaozhu's eyes afterward.
She looked at Han Tianyi and said solemnly, "But Elder Han, you and I both know that the reason why the Unyielding Soul is named 'Unyielding' is not only because of its power, but also because of its unruly nature and the extremely high risk of fusion."
"Yuhao is only six years old after all. Although his spiritual power has reached the Spiritual Realm, his mind and experience are still shallow. If he is not careful when fusing with such a soul, he will suffer a spiritual backlash or even soul damage."
"Are we... taking too much of a risk?"
Upon hearing this, Han Tianyi did not directly refute Leng Yaozhu's concerns, but instead revealed a meaningful smile.
"What? Does Deputy Tower Master Leng have so little confidence in Yuhao?"
Before Leng Yaozhu could answer, he continued to explain, "The wisdom of a three-thousand-year-old purebred spiritual evil eye is no weaker than that of many ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts."
"As long as Yuhao can gain its approval, the fusion process will be safe."
Leng Yaozhu pondered for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay, I'll go prepare the necessary paperwork now."
Each of the Unyielding Souls is priceless. If an outsider wants to apply for fusion, the price they need to pay is definitely no less than that of a normal ten-thousand-year-old Soul.
However, as the deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda, Leng Yaozhu has extremely high authority. Although she still needs to follow the necessary procedures to mobilize an indomitable soul for her personal disciple, it is not difficult within the scope of her authority.
After Leng Yaozhu left, only Han Tianyi and Dai Yuhao, master and apprentice, remained in the empty, quiet room.
Han Tianyi suppressed all her emotions, her gaze falling squarely on Dai Yuhao with unprecedented seriousness.
"Yuhao, the Unyielding Soul possesses a stronger sense of autonomy and pride, and cannot be forcibly merged with."
"Any attempt to suppress them by brute force will only provoke their fiercest resistance, and may even lead their core souls to choose self-disintegration rather than submit to the will of humans."
Looking into Dai Yuhao's bright eyes, which had become exceptionally serious, he continued, "Therefore, you must demonstrate your unique talent, potential, and character as a possessor of a spirit-type martial soul, so that the indomitable spirit can see your value."
"Only by gaining its heartfelt approval can integration be successful."
Dai Yuhao understood that this integration was also a test for him.
He nodded emphatically, remembering every word Han Tianyi said.
At the same time, he secretly vowed: If I want to become stronger, if I want to protect my mother, if I want to live up to Aunt Leng's and teacher's expectations, then I will start by winning the approval of a powerful spirit!
"Yes, teacher! I understand!"
His voice was clear and his eyes were firm.
Seeing that he had taken his words to heart, Han Tianyi's expression softened slightly, but she remained serious: "Determination alone is not enough; you also need the corresponding strength."
"Over the next period of time, I will first teach you some techniques for using mental energy."
"You possess advanced spiritual power, so learning this shouldn't be difficult for you."
……
The indomitable spirit number 48 was originally sealed in the most core secret vault of the Spirit Pagoda headquarters. After Leng Yaozhu, the deputy tower master, personally issued the transfer order, the indomitable spirit was delivered to her in less than an hour.
However, Leng Yaozhu did not rush to summon Dai Yuhao for fusion, but patiently waited for the training results from Han Tianyi.
She thought it would take at least ten days to half a month, but to her surprise, just three days later, Han Tianyi informed her about preparing to fuse souls for Dai Yuhao.
Therefore, before she could begin, she couldn't help but ask, "Elder Han, is Yuhao really ready after only three days? Wouldn't it be safer to consolidate his preparations for a few more days?"
Upon hearing this, Han Tianyi glanced at Leng Yaozhu, her white eyebrows slightly raised: "It seems you still lack confidence in Yuhao!"
Leng Yaozhu was speechless for a moment.
It wasn't that she lacked confidence, but rather that the matter was of utmost importance and required extreme caution; this is a case of being too concerned to think clearly.
Just as he was about to say something more, Han Tianyi waved his hand, his face showing a mixture of amazement and seriousness.
Let me tell you the truth.
Han Tianyi pointed to Dai Yuhao not far away, his tone filled with undisguised admiration: "That kid Yuhao, his comprehension and control over mental power is something I've never seen before in my life! Calling him a genius that comes along only once in a millennium is no exaggeration!"
He paused, as if recalling the past three days of teaching: "He grasped the skills and concepts I imparted almost instantly, mastering them after just one lesson! He could apply them to other situations and make connections between different concepts!"
"Therefore, it's not that I'm impatient, but that Yuhao has already reached a near-perfect state of preparation that is achievable at this stage."
"If he can't gain the approval of that three-thousand-year-old evil eye in his current state... then there's no point in waiting any longer."
"It's better to change targets as soon as possible and choose other more suitable spirits to avoid wasting time."
Leng Yaozhu's eyes flickered slightly, surprised that Dai Yuhao could receive such high praise from Han Tianyi.
She knew that Han Tianyi was not a reckless person, and the worry that rose in her heart was suppressed.
While the two were talking, Dai Yuhao and the two men were separated by a glass partition, standing in the fusion room.
Before him was a giant eyeball with a diameter of over three meters, which was the evil eye of the soul he was about to fuse with!
Its overall appearance is silvery-white, and its main body is an eye. Behind its smooth, spherical body, sixteen silvery-white tentacles that shimmer with an eerie light stretch out, making it look extremely strange.
Dai Yuhao took a deep breath, remembering Han Tianyi's teachings, and carefully extended his refined spiritual power slowly toward the huge silver-white evil eye in front of him.
The whole process went smoothly without any unexpected events, and then came the "demonstration" segment.
The content was actually quite simple. He simply introduced his age and martial spirit, and then unleashed the strongest mental state he could currently achieve using a secret technique.
After doing all this, Dai Yuhao held his breath and nervously observed the reaction of the Evil Eye.
However... time passed second by second.
The enormous, silvery-white evil eye remained suspended there silently, its sixteen tentacles swaying slowly and rhythmically, showing no emotion and offering no obvious response to Dai Yuhao.
Dai Yuhao's heart sank slightly involuntarily.
Could it be that... my talent and performance are simply not worthy of this proud spirit's attention? Am I not even qualified to receive a single response?
He gritted his teeth and transmitted his voice again.
"My mental talent is among the best in the entire continent!"
"If you're willing to become my spirit, it won't be an insult to you at all; you'll also get to experience the richness and diversity of human society!"
"In the future, if I can attain godhood and ascend to the realm of gods!"
"You will also have the opportunity to be reborn, which has precedents on the mainland!"
Dai Yuhao eventually revealed everything about becoming a god, but he didn't exactly lie to the other party, since his original destiny truly led him to godhood.
After he finished speaking, the giant, silvery-white eye that had been silent for so long finally moved!
The enormous pupil showed a clear fluctuation, and then the sixteen silver-white tentacles that had been slowly drifting all trembled at the same time!
The next moment...
The enormous, silvery-white evil eye, along with its sixteen tentacles, transformed into a dazzling silvery-white spiritual torrent. As if teleporting, it entered Dai Yuhao's brow before he could even react!
Dai Yuhao felt a cold, vast, yet incredibly pure and refined spiritual power rush into his body like a bursting dam!
The intense impact caused him to groan, his body trembling uncontrollably, and his eyes were instantly filled with a silvery-white light.
At the same time, a voice devoid of any emotion echoed in his mind!
"Remember your promise!"
